Horrible Watch, Lasted 2 Years, Useless Features
||Posted . Owned for more than 2 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.One of the worst and most disappointing purchases i've ever made. i bought 2 of these (one for me and one for my GF) thinking that since it was Garmin (and the price) that i was going to have a watch that would last with accurate features. The features are practically useless, the interface and button sequences you have to press to get to the features you want would mean you worked on the team that designed it if you really wanted to use them. and when you do, they aren't accurate with the junk app. some features would randomly come on (like fitness tracking without telling you so it would run for days for no reason, and it would put itself into low power mode no matter what battery life it had). watch band lasted a year. battery lasted 2 years. now it wont even attempt to charge, just a blank screen that wont even turn on. totally dead watch. i bought 2 of these, one for me and one for my GF. we both had the exact same issues. hers still charges but lasts about 2 days before having to recharge, which takes hours. wish i could go back and buy pretty much any other watch on the market.

Garmin/$
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Garmin is a great brand of watch but this particular one is very overpriced. The watch face isn't adjustable and you are stuck with the default watch face that's on there. For a $400 price point I expected more but it definitely does everything else well far as heart rate monitoring change steps and GPS navigation but if you are a particular person about changing your watch faces every once in awhile when the mood arises this isn't the watch for you.

Nice features but too hard to use
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This watch has a lot of attractive features and my main purpose was to use this for fitness tracking and to synch with my iPhone. I played around with it for a day. I downloaded various Garmin companion apps as well. The watch face is only monochrome and for older eyes like mine is hard to read. Overall I found it too difficult to use for my purpose. I ended up returning this watch and bought an Apple iWatch instead. I love the iWatch and for fitness purposes I highly recommend it.
